PUBG Vikendi update 0.10.0 Coming soon, Here’s all about it!

Winter has arrived. The all new PUBG Vikendi – Now on the Test Server With Update (#24) 0.10.0, has debutin with new snow themed 6×6 map, named Vikendi!

With Update #24, Tancent games debuting something we have been eager waiting for months; it introduced new 6×6 snow-themed map, Vikendi! An isolated Northern resort island in the shadow of Mount Kreznic, Vikendi was home to a wide variety of attractions, businesses, and villages. Look to the future from the spacecraft launch site Cosmodrome or travel back to the past and walk with the giants at the prehistoric Dino Park. Visit to the aging Castle or take a tour of the winery. Vikendi is as beautiful as it is dangerous and Survivors treading these bitter cold lands will have to watch their backs even more closely as the fresh snow is perfect for leaving behind footprints! The days are long on Vikendi, but it won’t be long before the sun sets and the auroras fill the moonlit skies.

The feel of Vikendi is a mixture of all the best parts of our previous maps. But that’s not everything coming in this patch! They are also introducing two brand new items exclusive to this map; the G36C Assault Rifle (which replaces the SCAR on Vikendi) and the Snowmobile to navigate its icy terrain. They’re also completed an overhaul to the in-game replay system, putting us in the director’s chair to edit clips, create 3D camera movements, and export your work so show the world your best PUBG productions! Coming later in the patch is our overhaul to the Parachuting system, which allows you to glide or dive during freefall, improves animations, and also lets you cut your chute before hitting the ground.

NEW MAP – VIKENDI

NOW ON TEST SERVERS

Vikendi Gameplay

Vikendi is 6x6km map. The gameplay of Vikendi is quicker than Erangel and Miramar, but offers an arguably more tactical experience than Sanhok.

Players can throw snowballs while waiting to board the plane in the starting area

Vehicles will be more slippery in snow or icy areas. Acceleration on icy terrain is slow and you lose more general vehicle control as you speed up

Footprints and vehicle tracks will appear as players travel in snow-covered areas. Keep an eye out! These are great to help identify if enemies have passed by recently

Keep in mind that footprints and tracks in the snow don’t stay around forever!

Redzone

The center of the red zone spawns outside of the play zone

The smaller the play zone, the smaller the red zone

Bluezone

The first circle of every game is much smaller than other maps, but subsequent circle sizes change less drastically.

This facilitates more blue zone variety and unique experiences.

Similar strategies work on Vikendi to Erangel and Miramar for the first three phases, but the zones will close slower starting from phase 4, similar to Sahnok. We feel this leads to a good balance between strategy and gunplay throughout the duration of each match

Item Spawn Balance

The overall item spawn rate is at a midpoint between our maps – offering a unique place between the spawn rates of Erangel and Sahnok.Level 3 helmets spawn in the worldLevel 3 vests spawn more often than other mapsSmoke Grenades are spawned at a higher rate compared to other throwables
